MEANINGFUL ACTIVITY
I am providing a new service, along with general group activities, called MEANINGFUL ACTIVITY.
It involves one on one activity, but with actual individual meaning for the resident. It can range from reading them their favourite books, or looking through their photo albums and chatting about their lives. It can be taking them out, or walking round the garden whilst chatting about everyday things. It can be giving them back a memory from a scent or a song. It can be anything really. It is all dependant on the resident themselves.
I spend time getting to know the resident on a personal level, learning about their life and family etc.. and discovering what their likes, and even dislikes are and tailoring the time spent with them accordingly. It is particularly useful for residents that do not like to leave their rooms very often, or get involved in group activities, but it is just as useful to residents that crave one on one attention on a regular basis, even if they are more sociable or able bodied.
Feel free to contact me for more information! :)
